3  He shall deliver you from the snare of the hunter *
 and from the deadly pestilence. 

4  he shall cover you with his pinions,
and you shall find refuge under his wings; *
 his faithfulness shall be a shield and buckler. 

5  You shall not be afraid of any terror by night, *
 nor of the arrow that flies by day; 

6  Of the plague that stalks in the darkness, *
 nor of the sickness that lays waste at mid-day. 

7  A thousand shall fall at your side
and ten thousand at your right hand, *
 but it shall not come near you. 

8  Your eyes only have to behold *
 to see the reward of the wicked. 

9  Because you have made the LORD your refuge, *
 and the Most High your habitation, 

10  There shall no evil happen to you, *
 neither shall any plague come near your dwelling. 

11  For he shall give his angels charge over you, *
 to keep you in all your ways. 

12  They shall bear you in their hands, *
 lest you dash your foot against a stone. 

13  You shall tread upon the lion and the adder; *
 you shall trample the young lion and the serpent
/under your feet. 

14  Because he is bound to me in love,
therefore will I deliver him; *
 I will protect him, because he knows my Name.
